About this Event
Remember coal mining? Come and listen to the story of the mining industry, told in original folk songs. The songs are written and performed by Alan Wood, one of Yorkshire’s finest singer-songwriters, with a spoken narrative by John Snook. While the show inevitably mentions the disasters and tragedies that that were part of coal mining, it also has lighter moments. It looks at the social changes of the time and shows how mining shaped other industries and everyday life.
"An amazing show and history lesson, totally different from what we were told 'darn sarf'"
